Hey Bruce,

Thanks for sharing! I really enjoy following your thread. 

I'm canadian as well and recently started a small mining operation in a barn in the back of my yard. P106 as well, but 090, so mine are 3Gb. I can't mine ETH with that, but RVN has been my holy grail so far and pretty stable in terms of profits. Plus, those cards are so cheap it doesn't require a lot of investment. I order directly from China as well and managed to get my power cost even lower than what you're paying for; $0.045 USD per kWh. This is what makes it profitable - no way it could work with the usual power cost in the US.

Wish I could put 30K like you do, but since I can't, I hope patience will pay! It's far from you in terms of size as a project, but your numbers are a motivation somehow!

I also found the fact somehow else is hosting those rigs for you interesting; maybe it's a service I could offer at some point! I would max out my panel pretty fast, but for around 5K I can get a new one installed, so perhaps that would be worth it...

Anyway!

Wish you all the best success in that project!
